WEDDINGS
GUIDE
WEDDINGS
WHY NOT LAS VEGAS FOR A DESTINATION WEDDING?
Tying the knot in Vegas? Find that perfect little wedding chapel, and a tux or wedding dress, too. People have been known to tie the knot in
this town. Famous people. People who like to act like they’re famous. And people who are just generally inspired by the whole Vegas-ness
of the place. Vegas and weddings are the perfect match. And, following the recent appeals-court ruling lifting a ban on same-sex marriages,
now every couple can be legally wed here – and in any number of ways. What can we say? We’re suckers for romance, and we’ve got the
Las Vegas wedding packages to prove it. Your ceremony in Vegas is only limited by your imagination. We’re a town that likes to please.
LEGAL TIPS YOU NEED TO KNOW
You still need a license, of course, but you can get married without months and months of planning. That’s why so many couples prefer the
simplicity of a romantic Vegas ceremony. Neither blood tests nor waiting periods are required, if you want to tie the knot. The legal age
is 18 for both men and women (proof of age is required), and licensing fees are $60. Civil ceremonies can be performed at the Marriage
Commissioner’s Office at 309 S. Third St. Chapel fees vary depending on the services provided. For marriage license information, visit the
Clark County Marriage License Bureau at 201 Clark Ave. (located on the northwest corner of Clark Avenue and Third Street), or call
702-671-0600. Marriage License Bureau hours are 8 a.m. to midnight, including holidays. You can get married in Vegas even if you’re not
a U.S. resident. Most countries require a certified copy of your marriage cer tificate ($15) and an apostille from the Nevada Secretary of
State ($20). Contact your home country’s Consulate office located in the U.S. to inquire if additional cer tifications are required. You can
start the pre-marriage application process by clicking on this website: http://www.clarkcountynv.gov/Depts/clerk/Pages/PreApp.aspx
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT
Getting married in Las Vegas isn’t necessarily the experience you think it is. Sure, we have drive-through chapels, but our most opulent
hotels offer first-class weddings. Think velvet runners, imported roses, Chilean sea bass and string quar tets. Weddings in Vegas are
custom fit for any budget, any taste and any couple. If you don’t want traditional, you can get married 550 feet above the Strip in the
High Roller Observation Wheel, or at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, in a helicopter ride over the Strip at night or at one of our
fabulous championship-style golf courses. A wedding in Las Vegas is sure to leave any couple with lasting memories. Think of the photo
oppor tunities, the reception venues and the available hotel rooms for all those friends and family who want to share your big day.
And, after you tie the knot, there’s no need to rush to the airport; you’re already in one of the top honeymoon destinations. The possibilities
are endless. And if you don’t see it all on your first visit, there’s always your anniversary. Make it an annual event. If you are specifically
looking for a minister to perform a wedding ceremony for you, check out this link to the official list of Nevada ministers from
Clark County, http://www.nvsos.gov/MinisterPublicApp/SearchHome.aspx. The list is updated with the most current registered ministers
in the area. Somehow, we don’t think you’ll have trouble convincing your loved ones to make the trip to Las Vegas. Here’s to unconventional
weddings. Here’s to unforgettable memories. And here’s to the happy couple.
WEDDINGS
SAY CHEESE!
How do you find the perfect photographer to document your perfect day? Here, it’s easy. With more than 115,000 weddings every year,
professional photographers in Las Vegas really know their way up the aisle. Las Vegas wedding photographers tend to be a versatile lot.
Planning a big, formal ceremony with aunts, uncles and dozens of cousins? No problem. An intimate hitching in the back of a limo?
They know just how to light that. Or maybe you prefer an Elvis impersonator crooning vows under a midnight sun? Been there, done that.
In fact, photographers in Las Vegas might be the most versatile lensers in the world. Traditional wedding setups, or candid. High kitsch or
high fashion, there’s a photographer in Vegas who’s just the right fit. Digital photography has enhanced the world of wedding photography
in recent years. No longer staid, staged and formal (unless, of course, you’re into that), wedding shooters with lightweight digital equipment
are free to roam the room for the best shots. And post-effects done by computer enhance the lighting and overall visual treatment.
Of course, there’s always something to be said for the traditional “say cheese” approach. Whatever you choose, it’s here. That’s par t of
the fun, isn’t it?
TAKE A RIDE IN STYLE!
It’s hard to imagine a Las Vegas wedding without a limousine. Here, they go together like Scotch and soda. These days, a Las Vegas
wedding limousine could mean anything from a tasteful black sedan to a bass-pumping, nightclub-themed party bus. Hummer limos are
popular, and stretch limos can run half a block long. And they all come in more colors than a neon sign. Sounds like fun, right? But limo
rentals in Las Vegas are a serious business. Vehicles are typically inspected daily by cer tified technicians. And the drivers must be top-notch.
If Las Vegas seems to be the Land of a Thousand Limos, it wasn’t always that way. According to Wikipedia, “the first automobile limousine
was built in 1902. The first ‘stretch limousine’ was created in the good ol’ U.S.A., in Fort Smith, Ark., around 1928. The cars primarily were
used to transpor t famous big band leaders, such as Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman, and their bands.” Here in Vegas, there’s always
a wedding bell ringing, and a chauffer waiting.
